Abstract
Since transporters of flying wing configuration have excellent performance in structure,aerodynamic,capacity and stealth,etc.,the flying wing configuration seems to be one of the most promising concepts for future high capacity transporters.In this paper,as cruising at 0.85,a flying wing transporter of 250t take-off weight,50t payload and 8000km range is deigned.By using Euler equations solver as an aerodynamic evaluation tool,the original design is developed to improve the aerodynamic performance.The final design shows that the design idea of this paper is feasible.
